Hack the Kitchen: IoT Innovation for African Flavors Join us at Chuka University for a weekend of culinary creativity and technological innovation! Hack the Kitchen is a unique hackathon where students from diverse backgrounds will collaborate to develop cutting-edge IoT cooking tools that revolutionize how we prepare and enjoy traditional African dishes. What sets us apart:

Focus on African Cuisine: We're not just building any IoT devices – we're specifically tackling the challenges and opportunities of African cooking, from automating ugali preparation to keeping chapatis warm and fresh.

Diverse Participation: We welcome students from all disciplines, from engineering and computer science to culinary arts and design. It's the perfect opportunity to learn new skills, meet like-minded innovators, and build a network of future collaborators.

Mentorship & Support: You'll have access to experienced mentors from the tech and culinary worlds, ready to guide and advise you throughout the hackathon.

Real-World Impact: The winning teams will have the chance to further develop their prototypes and bring them to market, making a tangible difference in African kitchens.
